today tlio Rev. T. Do Witt Tnlmnce, D. I).,
read nml cxotmdcd n chapter nbout tlio
multiplication of loaves mid folic. Tlio
opening hymn was:
Tlio morning llRht U breaking,
Tlio dnrkmixs illApH'nr.
Dr Tiitmapo took us tlio subject of bis nor
uton, "A llnil Roll Curod." Tlio text nasi
"1 Imvo heard thy prayer; liehold, I will hcul
thea And Isiilnli said, Take u lump of tigs.
And they took and laid It on tlio boll and bo
recovered." II Kings, xx, 5, 7.
Luxurious living I not healthy. Tlio
second generation of kings, and queens, mid
lords, and princes is apt to bo brainless and
Invalid. Tlio second crop of grnss Is Almost
always short. Royal blood is generally
scrofulous. You will not bo surprised, then,
to hear that King Ilezckiah had disorders
which broko out in n carbuncle, virulent and
dcatliful. Tlio Iord told 111 til ho mustdfo;
ho did not mint to die. Ho turned his face
to tlio vviill, m that his payer would not
bo Interrupted, and cried to Ood for his
Ufa God heard tlio prayer and an
swered it, saying: "Heboid, 1 will heal
tlico." Hut there was human Instrumentality
to bo employed. This carbuncle needed 11
"cataplasm." That is a tough wont wo uso
to show how much wo know. If in tlio pul
pit wo nbvnjs used words tlio eoplo under
stood, wo never should Imvo any repuUitloii
for learning Well, this carbuncle needed n
"cataplasm," which is n oultiea Your old
mother, n ho doctored her own children in
tho timo when physicians were not ni plenty
as they oi-o now, will tell you that tho very
host poultice is 11 llg, nud that was w hat sho
used upon tho carbuncle of King Hezekiab.
Tlio power of Ood, accompanied by this
human instrumentality, cured tho king.
In this ngo of discovery, when men know
so much it almost kills them, and write so
wisely it almost kills us, It has been found
out that prayer to Qod is a dead failure. All
things are arranged according to Inexorable
law. There is no uso In praying to Ood for
rain in timo of drought. Tho "weather
probabilities" In tho morning papers will de
cide tho question, rain or no rain, nud tho
wholo nation in prayor before Uod would
not tiring down n bluglo drop. 1 am not now
8cakiugof an imaginary theory, but of that
which Is believed by ten thousand times ten
thousand men.
If sickness comes to your household, It will
depend entirely upon ventilation, good diet,
and tlio skill of tho doctors, as to whether
your child gets well. Tho father might prny
all day, and tho mother might prny all night
It would not Imvo nny effect upon tho caso.
If squills, belladonna, paregoric nml gmcl do
tho work, your child will got well; if not,
not. There is n cast iron Uod seated nt tho
head of tho universe, holding in tlio cold
grasp of his metal lingers a band of law from
which nothing can break away.
Men nml women of Ood, at this point tho
great battle of Christianity Is to lie fought,
i'liogreutfooof Christianity to day is ration
nlisin, that comes out from our schools, and
universities, and magazines nnd newspapers,
to scolf ut lliblo truth nud caricature tlio old
religion of Jesus. It hays Jesus Is not Uod,
for it is Impossible to explain how ho can bo
dlvino and human at tlio same time. Tho
lliblo Is not Inspired, for therm aro things in
It that they don't like. Regeneration is a
farcoi there Is good enough in us, nud the only
thing is to bring It out. Development is tho
wont development. ThoUardeuof Edcuisn
fairy story and no mnro to bo believed than tho
" Arabian Nights," or "Gulliver's Travels," or
"Rubin son Crusoe." Wo all started as ba
boons, and r.rc blood relations to Hint monkoy
squirming about on the top of that hand or
gan. Luzai us was not dead w hen Christ pro
tended to ralso him; ho won only playing
dead. Tho water was not changed into wluo
at tho wedding, but Christ brought iu somo
wino that ho had found chow hero to mako
up tho deficiency. Christ did not null; on
tho tea, but. on tho shore, so near that it
seemed ns If no really wero on tho water.
Whut is stl 1 moro alarming is, that Chris
tian men dare not meet this ridicule. Thero
Is not one Christian man iu live that can, tin
blanched, stand iu tho presence of nil this rail
lery, aiylng: "1 beliovo In tho wholo lliblo,
ami In every single statement that it makes."
Christian men try to soften tho lliblo down to
suit the skeptics. Tho skeptics sneer nt tho
dividing of tho Red sea; and tho Christian
goesi to explaining that tho wind blow 11 hur
ricane from 0110 direction n good while,
until all the water piled up; nud besides, that
it was low water anyhow, and so tlio Israel
ites went through without any trouble.
Why not bo frank nnd say: "I beliovo tho
Lord God Almighty camo to tho brink of tho
Ited sea, and with his right arm swung back
tho billows on tho right sldo, and with his
left nrm swung hack tho billows on
tho left side, and tho abashed water
stood up hundreds of feet high,
while through their glassy wall tho
sea monsters gazed w ith affrighted eyes on
tlio passing Isrcalites" Tho rationalist comes
to you saying: "How nbout Jonah and tho
whale Do you really beliovo that ilsh
story i"' There wero nover so many Nan
tucket fishermen after 0110 whale ns thero
havo been rationalists Hinging harpoons at
tho Mediterranean sen monster, nnd from that
0110 whalo they havo got enough oil to light
ten thousand souls to perdition. A bkeptio
tells you that Jonah would havo been killed
iu thy process of swallowing, and that ho
could not, nnyhow, havo lived three days in
such close quarters, but would havo been
smothered by the poor ventilation. How tho
good Christians immediately goto work, and
try to explain tho wholo thing by
natural laws, so ns to plcaso tho ration
alists, nud say that n whalo is nn
air breeding ilsh; that every little
whllo It comes to tho surface, nud that tho
whalo that swallowed Jonah did tho samo
thing, anil thus got a supply for Itself nnd
for tho prophet. Why not rather say that
God can do nuythlng; and ho could tnko
Jonah through tho whalo' throat, although
tho throat would not havo been half largo
enough ordinarily to let him pass, and could
havo kept him alive in tho whalo live years
without any air, If ho had chosen to) Who
mado tho whulof Uod, Who made Jonah?
God. Then ho could do nuythlng ho pleased
with eltacr of them.
WHAT KEUAINH OV Till'. SIDLE WITHOUT
MVHTUltVl
Tho moment you begin to explain away
tho miraculous and supernatural you surren
der tho Uible. Tako tho supernatural out of
the lliblo, and you make it a collection of
lies and humbugs, in prcfcrcnco to which I
chooso "iEsop's Fables.," They nro what they
Sretcnd to bo fables. Hut If, after all that tho
ible declares, Jesus is not Uod, nn I Lazarus
was not raised from tho dead, und tho water
was not turned into wine, and tho Red sen
was not divldnd, nnd iu answer to prayer
Hezeklnh's boil did not get well, then tho'lll
blots tho worst fraud ever ierpetrated in
God's uuiverso.
Ahl my friend, bnvo wo been mlstnkoul
lloe Ood hear nnd answer prayer, or iloo bo
tiotl llctcklnh win sick unto dentb ho
prayed for his life; 0hI hoard him, nnd
lidded fifteen years to that lifetime, Tho
prayer saved him tho lump of llgs applied
being merely tho Ood npKinted liunmii In
strumentnlity.
"Hut," says somo one, "I don't liellevo tlio
lliblo." Ah I then wo will havo to part com
pany for four or live minutes, for It Is useless
totrytonrguo with nny man with whom
you cnniiot stand upon common ground. Iu
nny nrgunient, If you would Ito successful,
thero must lw some common dntn to start
from, It is foolish to try to prove to n man
that twice three nro six, provided ho docs
iiotndmit tho mulllplleatlou tallies or that
two and two nro four, If ho docs not admit
the addition tnblo.
My llrst address, therefore, Is to those who
do believe In the lliblo. I want to tell you
that prayer Is tho mightiest of nil remedies,
nnd Hint tho allopathic and liomeoatlila
nnd tho eclectic schools will yet acknowledge
it. Hero aro two cases of slekniws precisely
allko; tho snmo kind of medicine Is given to
both of them, and In tho same quantities.
Tho one patient recovers, nud tho other does
not. Why I God blesses tho one remedy,
nnd does not bless tho other, l'rnyer has
helped many a blundering doctor through
with a eno that would havootherw Iso become
completely umnaiiageablo. There Is such n
thing ns Gsiel hygiene, ns Christian phar
macy, ns divine materia medlca. That
Is n foolish man who, Iu caso of sick
ness, goes only to human resources, when
wo havo theso Instances of the lord's
help In tho sick room. Ileforo you call
tho doctor while ho Is there, nnd nfter ho
goe.s nway look up to him who cured Hezo
klah. Ietthon)othecnry send the oultlcc,
but God ninkcs it draw. Oh I I am glnd to
havo tt doctor w ho knows how to pray. Uod
send salvntlon to all tho doctoral Hlckncs
w uli Ik) oftener balked, death would bo
of teuer hurled back from tho door sill if med
ical men came Into the sick room llko Isaiah
of tho text, with a prescription In their hands
nnd tho word of tho Iird In their mouths.
BOMK MKN WHO IIKI.lUVKll IN I'llAYKtt.
John Abercromble, the most celebrated
physician of Hcotlnud, prayed when ho went
Into tho sick room, and ho wrote no more
nbly nbout "diseases of the brain ' than nliout
"tho philosophy of tho moral feelings." I
don't know how much of tho medical success
of Sydenham, nud Coo;n-r, nnd Harvey, nnd
Rush dooii(lcd upon tho fact that they know
how to prny as well as to prescribe. I don't
wautu physician who sees no Uod In human
anatomy to doctor my broken bones. If God
mndo us (nud 1 think ho did), nnd if the
Uiblo Is true (and I mil rntlicr disposed to
think it Is), then It Is notstningo that prayer
does traverse natural cause; ay, that It In
troduces a now cause. When Uod mndo tho
law, ho did not mako it so strong ho could
not break ft. If Uod mndo our Ixxllcs, when
thoy nro broken ho Is tho 0110 to mend them;
nud it fsicnsounhlotlmtwuHhouldcnllhimln
to do It. If my fiiruaco In tho collar breaks
down, thero Is no 0110 so competent to
repair it us tho manufacturer. If my watch
stops, there is no one so competent to sot It
going ns tho otio who made it If tho body
is disordered, call In tho Maker of It, It is
not nil, us theso physicists tell us, n matter
of ventilation or poisoned ulr, of cleanliness
or dirt, of nutritious diet or poor faro. 1
havo known pooplo to get well (11 rooms
wlicrotho windows had boon six weeks down,
tight shut, nnd 1 havo known them to dlo
right under patent venlllutors. I havo
known children sickly who every day had
their bath, and I Imvo known children robust,
tho washing of whoso faces would make their
features unrecognizable.
Uod did not make tho law nud then run
nway from IL What Is a law of nature? It
is only Uod'g usual way of doing things.
Rut he has said that if his children usk htm
to do n thing, and ho can consistently do It,
ho will doit. Uo on with your plll.s and
plasters, nnd nostrums, nud elixirs, and your
catholicon, but remember that the mightiest
agency in your recovery is prayer, l'rnyer
to Uod brought the king's cure, tho lump of
llgs lieing the Uod directed human Instru
mentality. 1 would havo you nlso seo for It Is another
lesson of tho subject that our prayer must
also bo accompanied by means. It is nn out
rage to ask Uod to do 11 thing white wo sit
indolent The prayer, to bo acceptable,
must como not only from tho heart, but from
tho hands. Wo must work while wo prny,
dovotlonnnd work going together. Luther
camo to Melnucthon's bedside nnd prayed for
his recovery, nud insisted, nt tlio snmo time,
that ho should tako somo warm sou)), the
soup being just ns important us tho prayer.
Iu too timo of tho greut plague that camo to
York, of England, tho priests prayed nil
night and all day for tho removal of tho
plague, but did not think of clearing out tho
dead dogs and cats that lay iu tho gutters,
causing tho sickness. Wo must uso means as
well as supplications. If n man has "even
ing prayers," asking for health, and then sits
down to a full supper of Indigestible
at U o'clock nt night, his prayer
is a mockery. A farmer has no right to
pray for tho safety of his family when ho
knows thero Is no cover on tho cistern. Tho
Christian man, reckless nbout his health,
ought not to expect tho samo answer to his
prayer ns tho Christian man expects w ho re
tires regularly ut 10 o'clock at night, and
takes his morning lath with tho appendix of
a Turkish towel, l'nul said to tho passengers
of tho Alexandrian corn ship that they should
got safe ushore, but ho told them they must
uso means, nnd that was: "Stick to tlio old
shipl" God is not weak, needing our help,
but God Is strong, nud asks us to co-operato
with him that wo may bo strong, too. 1'ray
by all means, but don't forget tho llg poul
tice. THE EITICACV OV I'llA VUU ILU'STUATED.
That Uod unsworn prayers offered iu tho
right spirit, seconded by our own effort, is
tho first und tho Inst lesson of this text, nud
it is u lessun Hint this ngo needs to learn. If
all communication liutwecn earth und heaven
is cut off, let us know it If all the Chris
tian praj ers that nro going up toward Uod
never reach him, then, 1 say, let sileneosmito
tho lips of tho nlllicted world, and tho nations
smother their groans nnd dio quietly. Uod
does answer prayor. Tlio text shows it
You say: "I don't beliovo tho Uihlo; I think
that thoo things wero merely coincidences,
which are often brought us answers to
prayer." Do you say that? Was it mere
happen so that Rlij.ih prayed for rnln Just
us tho rnln was going to como anyhow I Did
Daniel pray iutho wil l bcusU' dcu Just attho
timo when all tho lions happened to havo
locjfjiwi Did Jcus pray nt tho gravo of
Lazarus just at tho time when 1izarus was
going to dress hmioolf uud como out anyhow?
Did Jesus loso his place in li.s sermon, und
uuko 11 mistake, wneu ho muI: "Ask, and it
shall bo given you; seek, nnd jo shall Und;
knock, nud It shall Iw opened unto youC
And, lest some were so stupid they could not
urderstaud it, ho goes on; "For every 0110
tlmtuseth rocoivcth; and ho that seokoth
fludeth; and to him that kuocUeth it shall bo
opened,"
Hut some ono persists In saying: "I don't
beliovo anything of tho Uiblo." Then 1 ap
jieal to jour own instincts. 1'raycr in cer
tain circumstances is as natural to iiinn as
tho t.irnbli.ng In tho pulso, as tho ivspiratiou
of tho lungs. I'utacompauyof iiicn-I don't

nud tho vessel has gnno under ton times, when
thoy did not expect It would rise again, nnd

there Just to mock us for his own cruel
numseiiient? If Uixl Implanted that instinct
In the huiunn heart It was hccnuo In hi

To prove that Uod does hear iirmer, I put

A HTOItV OK HOW PIlATRttH WKHIt ANRUTCIlltn.
In my parish In I'hltudclphlu 0110 night nt
n meeting I asked a young man to go Into 11
room at the side of tho church nnd talk upon
the tlieine of religion, lie grew violently
angry, and shook his lists at 1110. Wo re
solved to prny for that young man, and wo
pray is I that ho might yield his soul to Uod.
And when, next night nt tho meeting, tho
side door wns Hung oxm, ho was tho llrst to
step iu. l'rnyer had captured him. I had n
classmnto In college, whoso uncle, Dr John
Bcudder, of India, wrote to him, saying, "1
will pray for you every day until such a day,
and thep I will glvo my intention to somo
other subject'' Tho last day of thuso prayors,
when they had all gathered up lieforo tho
throne of Uod, my classmate surrendered his
soul to Jesus. This Is 110 second hand story.
I saw- the letter, nud I know the young mail.
Hut why should I go so far? I havo had
III my own experience, nud I hnvo had In
tho history of my own family, tho evidence
that Uod answers prayer. My mother, with
threo Christian women, assembled week after
week and prayed for their children; thoy
kept up that prayer meeting of four htsoiis
year after year Tho world know nothing of
It. Uixl answered nil those prayers. All tho
group came iu, the eleven sous and daughters
of my mother camo Iu, myself tho last
Sickness camo to my household heirless
sickness, us it seemed to ninny. At !l o'clock
on Saturday afternoon tho Invalid was car
ried to tho steamer for Savannah. At 11
o'clock tho next day, being Sunday, stnudlng
In this very place, a man of Uod pmyed for
tho recovery of tho sick one. At that time,
II o'clock, sho who hail been prostrated threo
weeks, with some help walked up on deck.
Tho occurrence wns ns near to loliig miracu
lous ns 1 can Imagine That sho wns hopo
lessly kick, )eoplo who sat up with her night
after night, ami are here, can testify. That
tho pruyer for her recovery was offered It
this pulpit, thousands of people could testify.
That ut 11 o'clock on that Sunday morning
sho walked up on deck, as by a miraculous
recovery, I call tho passengers on the San
Jacinto, commanded by Cnpt Atkins, Dec,
10, to testify. This Is no second baud story.
I'rayer iuqiotentl If 1 dared to think thero
was no force iu prayer, methiiiks Uod, after
nil ho has done for mo nnd mine, would strike
mo dead. l'rnyer Imjiotcutl Why it is tho
mightiest force In tho universe. Lightning

your prayer w ill bo unswered iu Just tho way

This is tlw outcomo of all this subject

that their last word was a supplication
